Summary
Although prone position is widely used in awake patients with COVID-19 associated with supplemental oxygenation, high flow nasal catheter, or noninvasive ventilation, few studies are attesting to its real benefits on physiological variables or intubation rate. Awake patients dependent on supplemental oxygen may have different responses to PP about peripheral oxygen saturation, heart rate, and respiratory rate. Such responses may be permanent, transient, or even absent. We believe that the response to PP can be a predictor of the need for admission to the ICU. This study aimed to evaluate the acute effects of different types of response to the prone position in patients awake with COVID-19.
